Sativex® is a first in class endocannabinoid system modulator and is currently available in the UK, Germany, Spain and Denmark. Evidence generated from clinical trials shows that Sativex® has a positive impact on spasticity in multiple sclerosis, while alleviating associated symptoms including pain, bladder or sleep disturbance.

Re: [TMIC] Sativex (cannabinoid) news
Of course, they're afraid of the competition! Big Pharma hasn't been paying all those millions to legislators and presidential candidates just to see some better, cheaper drug get marketed in the United States! Follow the money, sonny That's what my father always said to me; and he had worked on a lot of big city newspapers in his life, as did his father.

Re: [TMIC] Sativex
Greetings from the foggy coast of Maine. I am using Sativex three times a day (Every 8 hours). I relieves, actually decreases pain from #9 to # 2-3, decreases those little spikey pains that come and go (secondary to muscle spasms?), decreases spasms (BIG SPASMS). I am lucky (?) as my band is not concentrated, but goes from my upper chest to the bottom of my feet. Have your MD email me. I'll tell him. Frank Sheldon M.D., C.M.
Re: [TMIC] Sativex
Greetings from Montreal where I saw my pain Doctor, Mark Ware, on Monday. I was the first person in Canada to get a prescription for Sativex. I take one spritz, under my tongue twice a day. It works for about eight hours, and it's better than Marinol or The Killer Weed. It comes in a box with four spray bottles. Each bottle has 51 sprays- or Spritzes. So, 204 sprays for $639.99 CND. A little over $3.00 per spray ( $6.50 a day, less than a martini). The big thing for me is that it works and is TOTALLY LEGAL- a big deal for me and my jet-setting life style. I hope you are all able to get a trial soon F
